Elementals: Techno Wars

Six Hours Away

The group began processing the revelation they had just stumbled upon. Knowing that they had no help to stop Herobrine terrified them, for they knew they were incapable of stopping his army of robots all by themselves. In knowing this, they attempted to think of something that could help the situation, but to no avail.

Sub: Well, do you guys have any ideas?

Neos: No... I was kinda hoping you did.

Steve: What ideas are there to forge? We have no one here that can help us. Ava's off in Val with Ben and James, and Ghost and Reaver are in Olympus. We only have each other to count on here.

Neos: Maybe that is how it is, but that doesn't mean it sucks any less. Damn, if only we had an army of our own, like the Jewels Alexa was apart of or something.

Steve: An army... That's it.

Sub: What's it?

Steve: We need an army, right? Keep in mind, Terra was far from the only kingdom around. Jack had formed tons of alliances when he was king, so we just have to find someone that's willing to help us.

Sub: So, you want us to go knocking on people's gates and request that they lend us a couple thousand soldiers that will more than likely die? With all due respect, Steve, I don't see anyone being that generous.

Steve: Look, I get it's a long shot, but what if it works? Then, we have backup. If we can get some help from other kingdoms, we have a chance. When push comes to shove, the three of us are only equal to two people when it comes to fighting right now.

Neos: That's true. Without you being able to use your Delta powers, we're severely outgunned. As low as the chances of us finding someone willing to help may be, it's the best chance we have of winning nonetheless.

Sub: Yeah, I guess you're right. Alright, we have somewhat of a plan. Now, where do we start in terms of finding this help?

Steve: Hmmm... Wait a minute, I know this part of the forest.

Neos: Oh, of course you do! Ok then, where do we go?

Steve: Terra's to the southeast of here, which means that the nearest kingdom is about a six hour walk from here, in the west.

Neos: Wait, I'm sorry, did you just say six hours? Steve, it is the middle of the night. We are being blanketed by stars and the moon, and you wanna walk for six hours straight? Hell, not to mention it's the middle of spring, which means that it's hard to even imagine what we're liable to come up on while walking, but you wanna go anyway?

Steve: Would you rather come across something while walking and light it ablaze with your powers, or lay here in the grass to sleep for the night and risk something coming up on us?

Neos: I-I— Heh, fine. We'll go.

Steve: That's the spirit. Well, come on. There's no time like the present.

Neos: Shit, your optimism kills me sometimes.

The trio began their march towards the kingdom they were hoping to get to. With Neos using a fireball he had fathomed up to light the way, the group was able to make a lot of ground in just two hours; however, even with all the ground they had made, they were already exhausted beyond belief, and it didn't help to be reminded of the fact that they weren't even halfway to their destination. Not wanting to waste much time, the group stopped at a cave, where they would spend the rest of the night resting their limp bodies. As the moon set and the sun rose, the group would wake up to the sound of birds chirping in the near distance, just before getting back up on their feet and resuming their traveling. With the three males now physically refreshed, as well as being in peek physical condition, they were able to make plenty of ground in just two hours yet again, with Neos not even having to act as their light this time around, as the sun beamed down on them from the sky above. To their surprise, though, after just five hours of traveling, the group broke through the forest that surrounded them, and would be met with the sight of a nearby kingdom, which relieved the males to no end.
